Video: Metropolis
This is the last three minutes of “Metropolis,” a really unique approach to the narrative history of the city of Charlotte, North Carolina, by Rob Carter.

Charlotte like a giant pop up book, I love it -- but I'm not sure if I care for that ending.

Odd question- is there a place online to retrieve old tax returns?

I don't know. They will mail copies to you if you send a form to the IRS, but I don't know how computerized the whole system is yet.
I had to get a copy mailed to me several years ago, and they were very quick with it.

Institutional ignorance is killing... literally. Not the same justification as Ft Hood, but the same result after the same 'we see nothing' mentality:
Just revealed that not only did the crazy H'sville bio prof kill her brother when she was eighteen and no record of investigation can be found, she mailed a freaking bomb to the home of one of the faculty members she killed less than two months later.

At 751 feet, Charlotte seems to have survived the rise in sea level.

It does, doesn't it? Which version? I've got 'em all.

Charles... it appears that there is some confusing on certain "quotes" from Dr. Phil Jones, what he said, what he didn't say and what some blog seem to be doing by "expanding" on his comments.
What I am finding is the BBC had more than one article, from the same reporter, based on the interview. This article is more on the data at CRU and Dr. Jones' explanation about some of the questions that has arisen about that data.
It's dishonest of some blogs to conflate and combine his statements, jumping from one statement to another to make up comments that appear to be more damming than they are.

Here is a service that might work. It does cost though.

Ah, the good ol' Queen City. I grew up a few hours away from there. Fred Kirby, Betty Feezor, WBTV News, Doug Marlette...mmmm...

TampaKnight, you can get free transcripts for free if that would suffice in lieu of a copy.

Um, where's Pucketts Farm Equipment? No vid of Charlotte is done till they have my favorite redneck, Nascar loving hell, er, um, drinking hole. And yeah, the owners name is Gary Puckett and if you catch him at 9am in the morning, he has a slight shade of green.

I remember the brick houses and tree lined streets in the suburbs. Also, the Billy Graham expressway through town.

Actually ,,,, in a couple of years or so,, i'll be looking to sell the condo and buy a house closer to the ocean (the condo sits on a golf course about a mile and 1/4 inland)
